We are looking for freestanding wood stove supplemental/power outage heat for about 2500 sq feet 2 story, average to above average insulation, pretty open interior in an easy climate(Pac NW, very rarely below 25F). Double or triple wall chimney pipe will run vertically up the exterior wall of the house to a total height of some 22 feet above stove. The first floor juts out a couple feet to place the chimney pipe directly above the first floor stove so the whole column will be perfectly or nearly straight up.
We are corner clearence limited by the existing hearth, so big unjacketted stoves are clearly a no go.
We can fit about a ~60k btu unit with single wall connector or about a 90k btu unit with double wall connector. Which combination of stove and connector pipe would you go with?
Thanks!
